I'm having some issues with installing the under-worktop fridge and (separate) freezer in my Howden's supplied kitchen.
The floor units are installed to the specs listed in their installation guide, i.e. foot length, worktop height, etc. I have adjusted the feet on the appliances so they are at their maximum and hence the tops are also at their maximum; Yet they are still a good 5cm below the worktop.
The plastic guard thingy is not going to fill the gap.
I could place the appliances on blocks, but I'm at a loss as to why they should be so low when everything else is to recommended dimensions, as per the documentation.
Also, I have doors with integrated handles (handle-less) and the correction sheet for attaching the frontal (door) is wrong.
The mounting brackets can't be placed in the usual location due to the integrated handle (the material is too thin), they have to be attached in different places. But once attached the revised locations don't match the tiny holes in the appliance door and even if they did, the frontal would be an inch or so too low.
I called them and they sent some revised instructions, but they were the same as the ones I already had.
It's going to be a case of seeing what works and ignoring the paperwork, but, if it's something I'm doing wroing, I'd like to understand what & why.
Oh, and the dishwasher fitted fine, albeit with feet adjusted to near maximum.
